I hope that you had a good trip Reg and the strike gave you a little more time to explore, like LM said, welcome back!
LM,
When I posted the SFAN II a recently, I thought saw a photo of it from a very similar angle to this, apart from the tail shape and maybe the cockpit canopy instead of a windshield it's a dead ringer!

It's not actually the Planette, but a development of it called the Drone. It had three engine types, and this one has the Ford water-cooled engine.
So close you have to win.![Thumb](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/thumbs.gif)

OK, fine. I went to see Sinco's reference to SFAN II and there the Drone was referenced as the predecessor. Thought the pic in Wiki showed a different tail
There is an obstacle, which I see now, which prevents the tail from showing properly... So I thought it is not Drone this time, either. Then I saw that the pic of OO-BAC which was disputed to be a Drone but a Planette - so I thought I was shrewd enough to reveal your plot. Otherwise OK, but it backfired
.
Yes, yes, LM, I will, I will,

As I presume LM originally chose your latest Challenge, I am tempted to ask is it another American?
